Plan:

Verizon Wireless
Local DigitalChoice 100 (no longer offered)
100 anytime
1900 N&W (starts at 8PM)
$25

Phone:
Motorola v120c

I've been with them since late 2001
for $5 more, I can upgrade to Local DigitalChoice 300 that offers
300 anytime
1000 N&W

but as a penalty, I would be obligated to extend the contract by minimum of one year and night starts at 9PM.
It's not a wise move for me, because I really use my phone alot between the hours of 8 and 9PM.

I have the LG VX 6000 Color Camera Phone that I got for $149

Did you have to sign up for a 2 year plan to get the phone for that price? Also, do you have to pay the 4.99 to send any pictures or can you just upload them to your computer for free? Any info on that phone would be appreicated, since i'm thinking about getitng one. Thanks. :beer:



Yes I did sign up for 2 years... I love their service though, gets great coverage for my area which is the SF Bay Area and the East Bay. Uploading pics to the computer is fast and free and the $4.99 is for sending unlimited text and picture messages. I love my phone!

Is it 10 cents per text message if you don't get the 4.99 unlimited plan?

Ditto, except I pay $39.99/month (no vision) and have a sucky phone.

Don't you Sprint and AT&T people get charged that bogus fee every month for "regulatory programs," AKA local number portability?

It's NOT a tax, the company charges it, and pockets it. It's not going to the government, folks. Why don't they tell you that your $40 plan is actually a $42 plan? I HATE that kind of crap.

I don't have a camera phone. I could get unlimited text messaging (no pictures, obviously) for 2.99 a month on Verizon, but I just have the "10 cents to send" plan. On average, I send about 10-20 messages per month, so I'm way ahead.

Verizon offers various deals for text messaging at different times. By buying the deal right now, you gain access to the future deals. If you do not sign up for any text messages, it is 10 cents to send and 2 cents to recieve w/o pictures. The $2.99 deal is awesome... I do over 200 a month...
